This is also your typical sports bar with lots of TVs and if you aren't going outside to golf there's a golf simulator inside. They have about 10 beers on tap; I got the cold smoke scotch ale which was good. I also ordered the tater tots ($4) with salsa, shredded lettuce, and jalapenos which are toppings at no extra cost. However you can add other toppings such as guacamole, meat, queso, and sour cream each for a couple bucks more. I was actually hoping to get some dinner here based on some previous pictures and menus. However the bartender I talked to mentioned that the owner was leaving and taking his recipes with him, meaning that they had to scale back their menu to only be the typical dive bar food like wings and things. She also mentioned that the customers at the golf course actually prefer it to be a quiet bar for the golf course goers instead of a busier place so there isn't much desire to get a new full menu. If you're looking for a more substantial meal now moving forward this is not the place for you.

Look, I love wine, but I'm no sommelier. I usually just point and say, "That one looks French!" But…read morewalking into The Hawthorn Bottle Shop and Tasting Room in Helena changed the game. This isn't one of those stuffy, velvet-rope wine bars; it's genuinely "New York chic meets Montana," which is the only atmosphere I ever want to be in. The main reason this place is magic? The staff. We had a server who was less of a server and more of a wine wizard. I told them I liked things that were "a little sassy, maybe a bit moody," and they didn't even blink. Instead, they completely crafted the perfect flight of wine flights for us to sample. It was like a personalized, four-course journey for my tastebuds. Every single pour was a winner, and the knowledge they dropped on us was actually interesting and not at all intimidating. I learned more in 30 minutes than I did in a decade of frantically googling "what is terroir?" If you're looking for an amazing wine bar where you can relax, learn something new, and taste truly incredible stuff without feeling like you need a wine degree, this is it. Go for the ambiance, stay for the wine, and definitely let their knowledgeable service steer the ship. They won't steer you wrong. Highly Recommend: Just tell your server to surprise you. It's the best way to do it.

Looks almost like a dive from outside but once you walk in they have a fantastic selection of fine spirits and a few good beers on tap along with a whole section of slots and gambling but it has a great atmosphere and feel inside.

Doesn't even deserve 1star. The bartender Luke was the rudest jerk I have come across in my…read morelifetime of 67 years. I had asked him if he had root beer schnapps in which he had replied "yes". He gave us peppermint instead. I told him I didn't order that and he said that I did and that's what I said. I hate peppermint! I asked for our money back as they didn't have it. There obviously was miscommunication, he told me to get the "f" out of the bar and if not, he was calling the police. My husband asked him what we had done, Luke wouldn't answer him. He was violent acting! He grabbed our beers that we hadn't even took a sip out of, called us MF and to get the "f" out. We felt harassed and embarrassed. I had a Haps hoodie sweatshirt on at the time which I am burning. He doesn't know a thing about customer service. He could've handled that situation differently, like offered something else instead but didn't. UPDATE: After a night of no sleep, I called Brent the owner the next morning to talk to him about the incident. He was very understanding and empathetic. He would speak to Luke and ask him why the situation escalated to anger over something so insignificant. He told us to come back in and he would make it right. I definitely will. I love this bar, have been patronizing this bar off and on since the late 90's.
